Feed amino acid prices were mixed in week 12. Lysine FOB China has stabilised at a low level, with producers seeking increases but little interest in long-term cover.

Higher US import duties raise landed lysine costs for American feed mills, while low Chinese prices with no long-term cover leave room for further moves. Buyers should weigh near-term US cost increases against the stable Chinese base.
